Fair enough. If that is the grand plan it’s understandable. The problem is it’s hard to say whether there was really any plan at all aside from get Brown off the books.

Pardon my skepticism but it feels like the marching orders are coming from above not with Brad or any kind of plan such as the one you laid out.

Well first, I’m sorry for your frustration. I know he was like your favorite player / someone you enjoyed watching. Are you suggesting that this move was not about basketball but about other things surrounding Brown?

I get it about the money. Obviously to me it’s a backwards move that I believe starts to close the door on the core as a whole which should be frustrating especially as the idea of Giannis was clearly their plan.

As far as whether it was basketball related I think it was 80% money. And if it was because of advanced stats, on/off well I’ve made my thoughts on that pretty clear. My mind is not open to being changed until I see them put together a similar regular season and find themselves in ECF or close to it.

I’m interested to see how it goes and how Tatum does when he is solely the head honcho. Almost all contenders have at least one co-star along the superstar. I don’t believe there is any such player on the roster.

There was a time when I thought that JB was on the same level as JT. I was wrong.

Is it at all possible that JB wanted out and is in favor of being traded?

Brown didn't seem happy here.

I’m sure he wanted out once the organization basically said to every team in the league they wanna trade him. Who wouldn’t.
